The Dyson DC33 washing your filter

Caution:

  • Switch ‘OFF’ and unplug the vacuum before removing the filters.
  • Ensure filters are completely dry before refitting to the vacuum.
  • PLEASE NOTE:
    • This machine has two filters, located as shown. It is important to check your
      filters regularly and wash at least every 3 months according to instructions, to
      maintain performance. Filter B should be rinsed and tapped out until the water
      runs clean, then tapped out again to ensure all excess water is removed. This
      will normally require up to 10 rinse cycles.
  • After washing please leave for 24 hours to dry completely.
  • The filters may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust.
  • Do not use detergents to clean the filters.
  • Do not put the filters in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven, microwave, or near a naked flame
